Welcome in to a new edition of NFL cover zero.

Drew Franklin here filling in for Matt Jones with Billy Relage.

0:26.2

Matt is up in Bristol, Connecticut, trying to get a flight back to Kentucky as we have some bizarre snow situations on March 17th, Billy.

0:33.9

But we'll fill in for him as we set up our next interview from the Super Bowl back in San Francisco.

0:38.6

We're going to continue to play these out. Today we got a little Cam Hart, guy from the Fighting Irish. And speaking of the Fighting Irish, Billy to St. Patrick's Day, and you're not wearing green. I'm not wearing green. I just have to throw that out there first. You're not a participant to wearing green? I just forgot. I normally take part in drinking green beer and maybe skyline chili with green noodles,

0:57.1

but I just didn. I normally take part in drinking green beer and maybe skyline chili with green noodles, but I just didn't wear my green.

0:58.8

Back in the day, that would get me pinched.

1:01.0

But Drew, don't pinch me.

1:02.2

I don't think we need that, right?

1:03.1

Yeah, it's not middle school.

1:04.2

I won't pinch you, but I did notice as soon as I walked in, you weren't wearing green, but I did, I am wearing my green.

1:08.6

I did notice you have on your Super Bowl hat. I don't

1:11.8

have mine on today, but I've been accused of wearing it way too often. My wife even said recently, did all the other hats go away in the closet? But we wear it because we're still kind of pinching ourselves. We were there. I'm still there mentally, actually. I've come back. I'm just, I'm a shell of myself.

1:26.9

It was definitely one of the best trips of my life.

1:29.3

And, you know, the NFL not going on right now, but yet we've still got a lot of news recently. Of course. It never stops, right? Free agency season has been wild. We won't break it all down for you. We've got to get to this Cam Hart interview. But, I mean, there's been a few topics we should address. We got a little time here before we toss back to San Francisco. Did you have any favorite free agency signings? I mean, we could just go down the list, but I'll let you lead off. Is there something that stood out to you that you want to brag about or complain about? Well, I'm very biased as a Tampa Bay Buccaneers fan, but Kenneth Gainwell was named the MVP of the Steelers last year from the team and then how he goes to Tampa. But I'm really still trying to get over Mike Evans leaving to go to San Francisco. Not only that, Drew, but to take a low amount of money, it was not about the money for him. He felt like he would go win a championship over there. I would argue there's an electrical substation that can

2:17.8

screw with his hamstring.

2:19.0

Of all the places.

2:20.2

I mean, he's a guy that hasn't played a full season in years. So I wish him nothing but the best, but he's taking some shots on the way out. And I really don't know how to handle it, Drew. He is, and he can't help that. You know, he got paid well to go to a contender. but on the 49ers end, with all the injuries they've had the last several years,
